Piers Morgan Uncensored

Twenty years after Richard Dawkins’ book The God Delusion helped propel the New Atheist movement into the mainstream, the debate over science, faith and the existence of God is taking a new turn.

Once celebrated for challenging religious belief in the name of science, atheism now faces a changing cultural landscape, with church attendance reportedly rising and the Bible returning to bestseller lists.

So could science actually provide evidence for God rather than disprove his existence?

Stephen C. Meyer, author and advocate of intelligent design, joins Uncensored to discuss his controversial arguments, his recent article in The Telegraph and the furious response it provoked from Richard Dawkins himself.

As the battle between faith and atheism enters a new chapter, can science and belief really be reconciled?

Piers Morgan is also joined by Matt Dillahunty from The Atheist Experience, archaeologist Flint Dibble, and founder of Noah’s Ark Scans, Andrew Jones, to debate one of humanity’s biggest questions.

Three years on from the October 7th Hamas attack, Piers Morgan reflects on how global public opinion towards Israel has dramatically shifted. While initial worldwide sympathy saw major global landmarks illuminated in solidarity, the rising human toll in Gaza, international recognition of Palestinian statehood, UK sanctions, and fierce debates over Zionism have altered the geopolitical landscape.

Piers addresses the growing divide, public sentiment in the West, and the complex history behind the conflict by first speaking to author of ‘Anti-Zionism: A Jewish History’ Benjamin Moser before welcoming his panel; US-Israeli journalist and broadcaster Emily Schrader, The Young Turks’ Cenk Uygur and Prager U commentator Shabbos Kestenbaum.
